ever notice how much work goes into a movie. for example harrypotter.jo and steve (script writer) took i-dno-how-long-but-you-can-guess to collaborate on the script. that's like idnohowmany emails! to and fro. since most likely jo has stuff that she needs IN the movie that steve suggests to CUT OUT. so NYEH.
then there's the making of the sets. the cinematographer has to go hunt for filming sets. if he can't find a suitable setting he's got to create it. he goes and gets together with the director, producer, scriptwriter(maybe) and they start to churn out ideas. maybe they need a designer to get in the designs suitable for the film era. so when they've finally gotten the exact look for the place, they start to construct it.
first, the architects. they lay out the structure for the carpenters and the carpenters build the first model. some weird people (i dno what they're called) come and put in the texture for the flooring, walls etc etc. then come the painters who do the final coat and present to you what you see on the movie screen.
the furniture is selected appropriately and they're put in to fit the set. like dumbledore's office. he's got a big desk with lots of wonky astronomy stuff cause he's into that shit.
after you're done with the setting of the scene, you move on to the people. of course by now you have to have your actors selected and what not. then they've got to get into character. understand the character and create clothes they would wear. such as favourite colors and such. for dumbledore, i'm sure he'll be fond of something midnight blue and comfortable.
add the beard the hat the glasses blah blah and you have dumbledore. after the scene's done. you send these shots to the editor. you have all these different angled shots and it's his job to cut and paste them together. he sends these to the director and if he likes it they'll take it. otherwise, more tweaking.
if the surroundings are noisy and the dialogue can't be heard, there's the dubbing. which is =.= yeah you get it.
done with all that, the finishing touch is the music. ever notice how important background music is? a movie's dead without background music. there's not feeling, no rise and fall, it's a dead movie. therefore. background music. IMPORTANT. get an orchestra or band together and get them playing music. of course you have to find someone to write the damned thing.
so yeah. all that just to make a movie. don't think the actors are the only ones that are in agony and whatnot. which is why i reckon stuckup actors and actresses are just a bunch of bull. they're not the only people who've done stuff for the movie.
which makes me even more determined to get into that line. GACK. if i can't be on screen (which is a definate) i'll be off screen. BEHIND THE SCENES!! MEHHHH~
K-LOVE
